For moms who had their babies, whether by C-section or natural birth, but didn't lose their mucus plug or experience fluid leakage, how did you know it was time? What signs did you have that made you go to the hospital?
how long did everyone stay in hospital after having a csection please?
Tuesday 10/8 babygirl came into this world. I wound up having an induced labor because she was measuring smaller then theyād like even though she was full term, so from start of induction to having her in my arms was 15 hours. From the moment I hit 10cm it took 7 minutes and 4 pushes. I love her with all my heart an...

Hey lovelies, I am pretty sure that my mucus plug is coming away š³ 2 days ago I felt like I had an extra trickle after peeing, but couldnāt be sure that it was waters. This was companies by very regular and intense Braxton Hicks through the night. Today, almost certain that my āplugā is coming awayā¦. Has anyoneā¦
Nearly 37 weeks and Iāve just gone to the bathroom and seen that my underwear are wet. Iām not sure that my waters have gone as itās not a huge amount but enough that Iām confused. Is anyone else having anything similar? Not feeling any kind of popping sensation and itās not trickling if I go to the toilet?
Iām booked in for a c section on Friday if little one doesnāt come before. Those that have had a c section, what are the essentials for after, both in hospital and at home? I want to be prepared, just in case!
Iām overwhelmed by the amount of options online. What are some brands/links for high waisted loose pants that would feel ok after a c section? Thank you!
I had retained placenta when I had my son 2 years ago and was removed in the theatre following a spinal. Just wondering if anybody who had retained placenta with their 1st delivery had a similar situation with their next. I really don't know how to avoid it if I were to consider having another. Still traumatised fro...
Anyone have a long latent stage? Iāve been having contractions all day yesterday and today, more intense today but triage said as the timings in between arenāt consistent to stay at home. Just fed up now!
So couple nights ago I had really bad stomach aches and really bad heartburn. I just thought it was normal but it got worse and it felt like contractions that I felt like I should not have had at least at 25 weeks. Next day I made a call to labour hall and they told me to come in immediately. Well I was having contr...
Iām due in January FTM but with Christmas coming up I want to get most of the stuff I will need before hand to spread the costā¦. Does anyone have any recommendations of things either for mum or baby that they couldnāt have gone without??
I am 37 weeks, still waiting for my appointment for my elective c-section. Due to severe anxiety and worries, I have opted for an elective c-section, but now having research and hearing about side effects of spinal and possibilities of feeling sensation of the procedure, I really want to go this process under genera...
Iām being induced early a week today. May sound like a stupid question but would I have to take my hospital bag/car seat etc? Also what snacks/drinks would be best to pack with me?
Iām 5 weeks pp and my C-section seems open still in areas, is this normal. The outer edges are the worst especially where they tied my stitches off. Anyone else had similar or was yours fully closed at this point. I should also probably mention it has been infected for the past few weeks and none of the antibiotics ...
